My friend is writing a book entitled "The Naked Man". In it, she
contradicts (based on interviews and research) the common
misconception that women are not sexually visual - as compared to men,
who are commonly known to "objectify" women. The book explores in
further detail what physical aspects of men are in fact attractive to
women, and includes photographic portraits as art.

As part of the book pitch, I need help finding books that (1) have
been successful and (2) are on a similar (but not exactly the same)
theme. The purpose is to demonstrate that this book has strong
commercial prospects based on previously published works, but that
this exact book has not yet been written. An example of a previously
published book that would be appropriate is one that deals with e.g.
"what men find visually stimulating about women" or "misconceptions
about female sexuality".

For my answer, a list of such books with the number of copies sold
would be ideal. A list of such books that have been listed as
best-sellers would also work. Please include html addresses or links
as references for your sources.

Thank you!


P.S. I heard about Google's "Ask a Question" service from a friend and
am very excited to try it!

Not to disappoint your interest in Google Answers, I would volunteer
the comment that "the common misconception that women are not sexually
visual - as compared to men" is itself a misconception.  From the
little that I (male) have read, females do appreciate "tight buns",
and their eyes don't stop with viewing a man's face.

remarked appreciatively about the well-formed asses of rugby players.
A book with that title in translation has already been published: 
Claude Levi-Strauss' "l'Homme nu" 1971, "The Naked Man", 1981 (see the
bibliography at the end of this site, about the middle of it):

Since he is a member of Académie Francaise and still alive, use of the
title could present problems:
